Last January Linton Brown gets the sack.
No reason given.
Hecky then left to answer the phone at the same time as doing the training sessions.
Months go by - still no new CEO.
Then to everyone's surprise - it's a young French guy.
As the potential new owners have already got a football club in France - one can only assume the potential new owners have had at least a say in this appointment.

The summer transfer window opens - and Hecky in his interviews is complaining that not enough players are being brought in quickly enough.

When the players are brought in - it's obvious that recruitment has been good in some areas such as defence - but poor in other areas such as the strike force.

Then the 2018 January transfer window opens - and Hecky in interviews is complaining again that not enough players are being brought in quickly enough.

The CEO is a pivotal part of the club.
Question is:
We seem to have eager owners willing to push the boat out and bring in decent players - coupled with the best manager in the football league - have we got the right CEO that is capable of linking these two parts of the club together by making sure the right players are brought in on time?

That, if assuming a 4-4-2 would be a first team squad of 33. Don’t forget you wanted about 8 wingers as well. That’s a wage bill of £8.5m a year if an average of £5k was taken - would be more as assume you would like proven championship players as well.

So first team wages of £8.5m against a turnover of £9m.

Given the fact we have circa 75 non football related staff and 100 non first team football activity related staff, coupled with security, maintenance, academy, marketing expenses, along with depreciation and other ad hoc expenses you would have Barnsley losing millions upon millions every year.

Get off his back, post after post, you haven't a clue of his daily routine. The guys moved here, into the town, not swanning off into some of the cities like the players, he's put himself right in the thick of it. It's a different country for him, he's a young guy that comes with a good pedigree from a much bigger club than ours.

All those different combinations over the last few windows and the same thing happens does this not tell you it's out of their hands?

Nudger had the chance to ask GG anything he liked at the supporters trust meeting.

As it turned out his only meaningful contribution was knocking over Hemsies drink with his size 14 feet.... and to be honest was probably more of a worthwhile contribution than anything that he would have said.

SIX!!!!! Manchester City, notorious for having cover for every position have two, Man United have four, with one too old and injured to hardly play. Chelsea have two. Liverpool have Four, again with one that's perpetually injured. Tottenham have two.

So what I'm saying is if you asked the five managers in the top 5 positions in the country's top league, their answer would be one quality striker (Aguero, Lukaku, Morata, Firmino, Kane) with one or two to cover.

Thank Christ sensible people run our club.

You say ...... I wanted 8 wingers.
That's a lie - so when I saw that I couldn't be bothered reading the rest of that rubbish.

Another lie.
I left at half time during that meeting.
Up to half time I had asked more questions than anyone else there.
What was your contribution???
